Chronicle

Chronicle is an option in the Vault section of Super Smash Bros. Brawl. It contains a near-comprehensive list of all titles published by Nintendo as of December 2007 in the Japanese and North American version and up to March 14, 2008 in the European version, for the Game & Watch, Nintendo Entertainment System, Game Boy (and Game Boy Color), Super Nintendo Entertainment System, Virtual Boy, Nintendo 64, Game Boy Advance, Nintendo GameCube, Nintendo DS and Wii. More titles are added to the list as the player collects new trophies and stickers that refer to those games.

Some minor differences exist in the Chronicle between different regional release of Brawl. Notably, the NTSC version of the game gives specific release dates for more recent games on the list, but the PAL version restricts all releases to year only.[1]

Furthermore, a variety of game titles were changed in between regions. While some involve merely changing the name of the game to the region's official name (such as Yoshi into Mario and Yoshi in the NES section), others were completely changed. A variety of games focusing on American sports, such as games starring baseball player Ken Griffey, Jr., or basketball player Kobe Bryant, were removed from the listing; instead, they were replaced by a selection of games created by Rare both prior and during the time Nintendo co-owned them.

Exclusive to the Japanese version, is a section for Famicom Disk System games.[2]

Despite Baten Kaitos Origins being published by Nintendo in all regions, it is only available in the North American version.

The Perry trophy unlocking Pokémon Trozei is most likely because both games were released on the same day in Japan, and the wrong game was hidden. The error was fixed in the European version of the game.

There was an error when obtaining the Lip's Stick trophy, it unlocks Tetris Attack however, Lip for whom the weapon is named does not appear in the game when Panel de Pon was localized and replaced with Yoshi characters. In the Japanese version, it simply says Panel de Pon which is where its from.
